Hi, there is no update (HSP) for TIA V13 and firmware V4.2 of cpu-1200. V4.2 is only available up on TIA V14. But you can still use V4.1 in V13, even if the cpu has a newer firmware. Firmware version V4.2 released for S7-1200 CPUs"To configure the SIMATIC S7-1200 CPUs version 4.2 and higher you require the Engineering System Step7 with version V14 and higher." "An S7-1200 CPU with version 4.2 is replacement compatible with an S7-1200 and firmware version 4.0 and 4.1. This enables the use of an real existing CPU with firmware version 4.2 with an engineered V4.0 or V4.1 based on an existing TIA portal V13 or V13 Service Pack 1 project. The new firmware features can't used in that case." regards sancruz |
Feedback appreciated, please rate |

Hi sancruz, You right, V4.2 is on TIA 14 Hardware Catalog and NOT on TIA 13, BUT look at bellow picture of Online hardware (I had to use TIA 17 to be able to see Project version), Version of CPU is 4.2.1 and software is TIA 13!! How that is possible!!?? Tanx |

Hi, i assume it was done like in the previous link described. "An S7-1200 CPU with version 4.2 is replacement compatible with an S7-1200 and firmware version 4.0 and 4.1. This enables the use of an real existing CPU with firmware version 4.2 with an engineered V4.0 or V4.1 based on an existing TIA portal V13 or V13 Service Pack 1 project. The new firmware features can't used in that case." You can configure the CPU in V13 with firmware V4.1 and download the project into the cpu with new firmware. Afterwards your project version online is V13 and the firmware is V4.2 (online firmware does not downgrade if firmware V4.1 was configured in hw-konfig). Please have also a look at this FAQ, this may explain it better, event it is for CPU-1500. How do you load the project data if the version of the firmware installed in the S7-1500 CPU cannot be selected in the hardware catalog of your version of STEP 7 (TIA Portal)?regards sancruz |

Hello. A general helpful link for situations you are in when it comes to which software version to use: I have in mind that TIA Portal V13 without service-pack was used to load the project. That means there is a complication which is documented here: Please check the FAQ links for the appropriate details. In short..
